On the 6th, the city announced that it has installed four CCTVs inside each of the 84 train cars of Urban Railway Line 1 and is operating them.

The installation of CCTVs inside the train cars was promoted in response to the recent increase in various crimes, incidents, and accidents occurring inside urban railway cars.

The city expects that with the CCTV installation, it will be possible to monitor the interior of the cars without blind spots and promptly respond to situations occurring inside the cars, such as train fires and passenger falls.

Earlier, last year, the city built an AI model enhancement dataset for urban railway CCTV footage at City Hall Station and Daejeon Station to improve the performance of the AI safety system.

Additionally, the city has improved services to make it easier for transportation-vulnerable groups to use the urban railway by installing Hi-Pass type turnstiles for the disabled and With Baby (Agirang) seats, which are improved versions of the existing priority seats for pregnant women.

Yoon Geum-seong, Director of the Metropolitan Railway Transportation Division of the city, said, “To prevent crimes inside urban railway train cars and respond quickly, we have installed CCTVs in all cars of Urban Railway Line 1. The city plans to continuously expand safety facilities so that citizens can use the urban railway with peace of mind.”
